✨ One thing that is not talked about or accepted enough: ✨

When coming out of a relapse, whether physical, mental, emotional, etc, just how exhausting it is and how daunting it can be to face everything that we had to avoid doing during our suffering.

Go easy on yourself during such a fragile time.
IT IS OKAY to not get all the things done right now.

Finally back in my happy place last week after a little over a week away, far too poorly to train 💜🏋🏻‍♀️ some catch up posts to come now 🥰

Couldn’t do much as was still in a lot of pain and super fatigued from a mix of this awful chest infection turned pneumonia; endo; all of my neuro sh*te; and Thyrotoxicosis kicking my ass with my Graves Disease relapse 😭

When one thing hits, it all bloody hits 🤦🏻‍♀️ autoimmune conditions really fu***ng suck 👎.

That session was hard but I’m really proud of myself for pushing though again 💜 and huge bonus for the leg and glute gain pics, looks like the rest did them good 🍑💪🤘

13 months difference. The exact same body weight, yet massively different body compositions 🥰💪🏋🏻‍♀️

Another year of progress reminding myself of how far I’ve come despite all of my medical issues 🥰

Can see where I’ve lost loads of fat from my waist, hips, back, tummy, and upper arms 💪🏋🏻‍♀️ and can finally see the return of my biceps after a few years away in hiding too 😅 I suddenly love standing with my hands on my hips cos I can finally feel my slender waist again and everything feels so much more toned 🖤💪🍑

I’ve literally lost the whole top tyre off my stomach and back as well 😍 body dysmorphia is so messed up 😂 and heres the proof!

This is why I chase PB’s and why I don’t chase numbers on the scales 👌

The scales might stay the same as you lose fat and build muscle simultaneously.

That doesn’t mean that you’re not progressing, because you are 🖤💪🏋🏻‍♀️

It’s never an overnight journey, it definitely won’t happen in a few weeks or months either…it takes time and consistency to turn fat into muscle 🥰🏋🏻‍♀️

I’m determined to not give up. Working out keeps me sane, the gym is my happy safe place, and I compete against only myself 💜🏋🏻‍♀️

Drop me a DM for a quick chat on how I can help you on your own body transformation journey with 💜🖤

The hat and I. An unwanted love story established May 2023.

I have neverrrr been a hat person. Ever. Looking back now, I can kinda tell it was an Autistic thing of mine.

But since being hospitalised at the end of May last year and being told that I have an invader pressing into my brain, the photophobia has only gotten worse, to the point that I am completely housebound hidden behind curtains for about 75% of the warmer months.

So the hat and I had to reluctantly become friends. It's taken a while, but I think I'm okay with them now ###

Really excited for this Wellbeing Festival with Aura - Shine your brightest on Saturday 3rd August at Milton Park in Alsager 🥰🫶💜

Excited to be working with other businesses and to be running my own interactive workshop 🥰 I’ll also have a fitness competition running throughout the day too with a really cool prize for the winner.

Would be great to see this event packed out 💜

Second upper body session of the week at the new gym and I am so impressed with this visual progress with my back 😍😍💪🏋🏻‍♀️🥰

You can visually see the asymmetry between my shoulders and lats which is caused by the lateral Scoliosis curves in my spine. But I am loving seeing the awesome muscle progression going on too 🥰🏋🏻‍♀️💪.

Lat pull downs are a great exercise for people with Scoliosis as you’re working on strengthening the back muscles; which can help to counteract the imbalances, improve stability and posture, and ultimately reduce pain if done correctly and safely.

General lat pull downs like these are great, but also consider throwing in some single arm pull downs too if your scoliosis is mild, as these can also help to balance out imbalances in strength between each side. These can be done on the cables machine or with resistance bands 🥰💪🏋🏻‍♀️.

“Honestly? I wanna see you be brave” 🥰💪🏋🏻‍♀️

I’m a bit quiet on the socials front at the moment as I’m focusing on my business planning and product creation right now. As well as getting my beautiful car fixed and back on the road.

I’m still here though and still working hard against all of my health conditions and disabilities 💜🏋🏻‍♀️💪

I won’t give up 🥰💪⭐️

Fun Fact: Good Morning’s are primarily a leg day exercise, BUT for people like me with spinal and pelvic issues, these are a great back exercise to strengthen the erector spinae muscles either side of the spine, and the lower back muscles too.

*this video has been sped up and slowed down to be able to fit it all in 👌💪
